Anders was one of my early heroes too - way before people like Gates or Ellison were on the scene. I too graduated from BASIC to Turbo Pascal, and couldn't believe the speed differential, and learning about things like recursion etc.
I never met Anders, but I did meet someone who used to work with him at one point and who marvelled at how he use to write blocks or Assembly code off the top of his head when everyone else had to plot the instructions and registers on paper first.
